So, after reading up on that whole Hunky Dory's rugby girls controversy. I was wondering what Ads have boardsies found offensive or of bad taste.

For Reference

The Go Compare ad's.

I find it offensive that he hasn't been shot with his own balls of shite yet.

That guy who sells gold in the ILAC centre.

Creepy fecker.

SureYWouldntYa · 08-11-2013 10:48PM

That ad where yer wan shouts "Donal" every 5 seconds, offends me no end

BillyMitchel · 08-11-2013 10:49PM

Lads hardly offensive!

The anti abortion billboards that group put up.

Fock off.

bop1977 · 08-11-2013 10:50PM

Every single ad. Hate them all.

BNMC · 08-11-2013 10:50PM

"want condoms with that"

No thanks, I'll just fuck her up the arse.

Should an alternative advert, "No rubbers?, no problem, take the dirt trail".

Any ads that make the average man look like a feckin' eejit.

Any ads that make the average woman look like a feckin' eejit.

'Dear 30 year old me'

*changes radio station

drunkmonkey · 08-11-2013 10:55PM

I was offended Tesco pulled the Gay best friend before I could get one.

Eoin247 · 08-11-2013 10:56PM

The only thing outrageous about the hunky dory adverts, was that there exists backwards irish people who spent time complaining/campaigning against the adverts!

Frosty McSnowballs · 08-11-2013 10:56PM

Any banking ads.....fcuk off.

Please continue to deduct your fees without telling me you are going to do it.

What about yourself?

'It's so easy, even an adult could understand it.'

That's not how it works little boy. You know NOTHING!!

In the Coke Zero ad (aimed at men), the guy beds the girl, causes a distractionary explosion, abseils down a building and gets a lift on a helicopter, all to avoid her parents, while blowing her a kiss as she reminds him to call her.

He's a hero, who wouldn't want him or want to be him?

In the Diet Coke ad (aimed at women), the woman-puppets downsize a handbag to accommodate a can of diet Coke. And they're all delighted with the achievement. They even do a little puppet dance to celebrate.

I don't drink Diet Coke any more.

Mariasofia · 08-11-2013 10:58PM

That diet coke ad where them 3 wans shake your mans coke and the poor fella gets soaked and has to take off his t shirt........ very offensive :-D

Pumpkinseeds · 08-11-2013 10:59PM

Take your pick of any of the adverts which use precocious, obnoxious and patronising kids to make adults look like idiots. I will NEVER purchase any of their products, solely because those ads annoy me so much.

Ace Attorney · 08-11-2013 11:02PM

Yon fella from the Aldi ad, why dont YOU shop in aldi, im aldi aldi aldi all the way now

vitani · 08-11-2013 11:02PM

That one that always seems to come up on youtube when I'm trying to watch The Great British Bake Off - 'Sorry for being so direct but you've been obese for a long time'. I may be watching a show about cake but that doesn't mean I'm fat :mad:

PizzamanIRL · 08-11-2013 11:03PM

The ad where the man with the full head of hair is bragging about every hair counting and making you feel good or some ****e like that.

mr_edge_to_you · 08-11-2013 11:05PM

That prlck in the Coke Zero ad at the cinema switching people's drink. I like Coke Zero but sometimes you cant beat a sup of the real stuff. If I ordered a Coke and that prlck switched the drink I'd knock him out.

mind you we used to do it to the Spanish students in the fast food i worked in back in the day.

also, this must be the first year where Meteor haven't had an offensive Christmas ad.

Knob Longman · 08-11-2013 11:10PM

Men are always made out to be fairly thick on Irish ads..In turn the women always know it all...

I don't really watch TV, but of the ones i've seen from this thread, the coke zero swapping guy pisses me right off. Don't lie to me about my ****ing drink. I'll lie to myself about having diabetes or not! Not you!

Mint Aero · 08-11-2013 11:16PM

Persil Ad:

Pelting food at a ginger kid along the theme of 'for what life throws at them'

Clearly an incitement of hatred and normalising physically assaulting people with red hair.

Every single ad where the husband is portrayed as some dumb fukk who can't even work a washing machine.

08-11-2013 11:20PM

Whichever ones that make men to be out to be bumbling idiots that cannot cope by themselves.

Red21 · 08-11-2013 11:25PM

Guinness wheelchair ad especially the line at the end, "the choices we make...hop hop hop"
